NAME

set_effective_priv, set_inheritable_priv, set_permitted_priv- Assign a privilege set for the current process

SYNOPSIS

cc [flags...] file... -ltsol


#include <tsol/priv.h> 

int set_effective_priv(priv_op_t op, int privno, [ , priv_t priv_id, ... ] );
int set_permitted_priv(priv_op_t op, int privno, [ , priv_t priv_id, ... ] );
int set_inheritable_priv(priv_op_t op, int privno, [ , priv_t priv_id, ... ] );

DESCRIPTION

These routines, located in the Trusted Solaris library, assign the effective, inheritable, and permitted privilege sets, respectively, for the current process. These routines provide a user-friendly interface to the system call setppriv(2) . op is one of these operations:

PRIV_ON

Add the specified privilege ID s to the privilege set of the target process.

PRIV_OFF

Clear the specified privileges from the privilege set of the target process.

PRIV_SET

Add the specified privilege ID s to the privilege set of the target process and clear all other privileges.

privno indicates the count of privilege ID s that follow. The behavior of these routines is undefined if privno is less than zero. priv_id is a numerical privilege ID defined in <priv_names.h> .

Note that if op is PRIV_SET and privno is 0 , the target privilege set is initialized to the empty set.
